I enjoy the flick, and will watch it again. But the [DVD] extras? Almost counterproductive. I don't care for them.

While it has its up points, it's clunky, tedious, and is a basic retread of material from Deodato's horror flick...

Rent it if you're that curious; all others can safely avoid it and still lead a perfectly happy life.

The most shocking thing about Cannibal Ferox is that it remains a somewhat popular entry in the largely worthless Italian cannibal genre.

Still one of the funniest movies of all time, assuming you're not shocked by cheap gore. Never mind the "20 scenes of extreme brutality" mentioned in the introductory "warning" (ROLL UP! ROLL UP!), there are at least 30 scenes of extreme hilarity....If you're looking for a good cannibal flick, "Cannibal Holocaust" is

My 3rd favorite movie for some unholy reason. An Italian shocker that's much less better then cannibal holocaust movie. To me that was just amazing this is still awseome though. Simple story. A bunch of friends go into the jungle to disprove that cannibalism was never real and "Man Eat Man" was just bull shit all
